Because I fairly recently converted that caption dialog to the new
widget layout I was in that code area recently. Anyway...
a) to find the code for something visible in the UI search for the
string in http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/ That'll find you the .src
or .ui where the string is and then it's a matter of grepping for the
name of the surrounding .ui or dialog/tabpage of the .src in the source
to find where it's implemented. In this case it's
sw/source/ui/frmdlg/cption.cxx
b) Turns out to be trivial to fix this, the fundamental bug appears that
the original code put the orientation as the first argument to the
orientation class and not the *second*. Fixed as
